Proposed Posters*

Posters are static visual description of a small task. A process that does not necessitate a session and one that can be easily explained completely using a A3 sheet (or 2 A4 sheets) or less qualify for a 'Poster'. An original cartoon, slogan or a portrait can also qualify as a Poster. The person presenting a poster needs to be around to take further queries.

*Printout facility may not be available at the venue. Prefer bringing a hard copy.
